Tungaloy expands its TungThread line of indexable threading tools to include 11ER external threading inserts, as well as 8x8 mm and 10x10 mm square shank holders to accommodate the new inserts.

Dialight launched its new SafeSite Glass Reinforced Polyester (GRP) linear form factor for the APAC and EMEA markets. This LED fitting includes IECEx/ATEX Zone 2, 21 and 22 certification for hazardous applications, including upstream and downstream oil and gas, petrochemical, mining and heavy manufacturing applications.

Shaft manufacturing is a core function in automotive production. While in recent years drive and transmission shafts were the focus of production planners, the success of e-mobility also increases the demand for productive rotor shaft manufacturing. Therefore, there is a need for a manufacturing solution that is able to machine a great variety of components.

SMW Autoblok introduces the WPS/APS workpiece positioning system featuring manual zero point clamping system used in a variety of machining applications, including turning, milling, inspection and finishing.

Machine shops looking to utilize tombstone workholding fixtures on their horizontal machining centers should know about the economical and convenient way of setting-up their machine using Kurt VersatileLock vises mounted back-to-back. The VersatileLock tombstone setup can be used on a wide range of existing HMCs, particularly smaller ones with work envelope size and weight limitations.

RoboVent has re-designed one of their most popular weld fume extraction systems from the inside-out as the first part of a new wave of product launches and exciting organizational updates and announcements leading into 2020.nEach Spire unit provides filtration for up to two robotic weld cells for effective source capture filtration or easily converted to an ambient unit for area-wide filtration when a hooded enclosure is not possible.

U.S.-made, premium, right-angle, Korner zirconia and ceramic flap discs are available from Weldcote, a division of Zika Group. U.S.-made, premium, right-angle, Korner zirconia and ceramic flap discs are available from Weldcote, a division of Zika Group.

In addition to their popular air bearing planar XY stages, a series of integrated XY stages with mechanical bearings is offered by global leader in precision motion systems, PI (Physik Instrumente). These integrated XY stages, engineered for higher loads, are available with 3-phase linear direct-drive motors for higher speed and ballscrews for higher push/pull forces, respectively.

GMTA, the North American distributor of Profilator, has added new machines using the process modules it already supplies. Profilator is suitable when customers require complex machining processes to be carried out effectively, efficiently and with high precision.

The introduction of IVEC's Ultra on-demand ventilation system is in direct response to the industry's growing focus on energy savings. The new, high-efficiency air quality control system not only significantly reduces energy costs but also improves air filtration, extends filter life and reduces equipment maintenance requirements, effectively improving air quality at a lower total cost of ownership.

MSC Software Corp., part of Hexagon's Manufacturing Intelligence division and a global leader in computer-aided engineering (CAE) simulation software and services, announced MSC Apex Generative Design, a new design optimization solution that improves quality through automation of design processes with embedded manufacturing knowledge.

Simufact, part of Hexagon's Manufacturing Intelligence division and a global operating software company providing process simulation solutions and services to manufacturing industries, announced Simufact Additive 2020. This powerful solution for the optimization of metal-based additive manufacturing (AM) processes now provides cost estimation of the build process, and improves interoperability with Materialize build preparation software and Renishaw printers to streamline manufacturing processes.
